Arginase impairs hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in murine endotoxemia
BACKGROUND: Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) optimizes the match between ventilation and perfusion in the lung by reducing blood flow to poorly ventilated regions. Sepsis and endotoxemia impair HPV. We previously showed that nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) is required, but not sufficient, for...
